It's May 1985, Everton are champions.
Beating QPR on May 6.
2 days later, West Ham at home.

Off then to Rotterdam for a European Final, 4 nights later.
3 days on, FA Cup Final.

It’s heartwarming to read many Evertonians tweet today, all complimenting fans of

A credit to their club.
They’ll be back, and soon.

So Carragher reckons Man City should be kicked out of the CL “as they knew the rules at the start.” Oddly enough, Liverpool knew at the start of the 2004/05 season that to qualify for the following year’s CL they’d have to finish in the top 4.
They didn’t.
Rules got changed!
I think Everton should put in a bid for "promising Manchester United academy graduate", Kobbie Mainoo tomorrow. £25m seems a reasonable price, and perhaps offer them the experience of Michael Keane, returning to his former club. "Sir Jim" should appreciate such an offer.
#UTFT
Wonder if today's the day
@Everton
consider ditching "Grand Old Team" at the end of a game at Goodison, if we've won, allowing that song to migrate back to Scotland, and be replaced with the song that cascaded all around Leicester's home today? "Spirit Of The Blues", let it be.
Man City play Man United, and Jamie Redknapp moans about how Liverpool will be disgusted with United's performance! Last week, also on Sky (spot a theme here?!), Everton are denied a blatant penalty against City, and the analysis was all about Liverpool being denied points!
#UTFT
“For us, as neutrals, it was brilliant to watch…”
Robbie Keane, ex-Liverpool, sitting alongside Souness and Redknapp, also ex-Reds, being asked the question by Dalglish’s daughter!

ANFIELD CLUB LANDS LEAGUE TITLE IN MARCH!

“Manager Howard Kendall is considering a move for injury prone Bolton midfielder Peter Reid.

There's a Leicester fan on radio now, properly calling out the media for the lack of coverage of the tackle that put their player Pereira out of the game, after suffering a fracture from a rash tackle against Liverpool. Right too, to state if it had've been on the other foot...
Wouldn't it be nice to hear the audio between referee Craig Pawson and his officials, as Konate escaped a second yellow card, and a sending off yesterday?! Just curious, and as the audio was made public after the recent Spurs v Liverpool game, it's legitimate ask!

I cannot wait to applaud the first footy journalist to ignore the calls for Lampard to go, and instead focus his or her ire on BILL KENWRIGHT'S thirty plus years in the Boardroom at Everton. It's the elephant in the room, the reluctance of many to take him to task.

I'm noticing quite a few Reds today, all bemoaning City's wealth; suggesting if not for them there'd be no proper competition. Despite the cries of "it's not fair, they've more money than the rest...", am I right in recalling they wanted to form a Super League, alongside City?
Can people stop saying Everton were 'only' given a 6pt penalty by the same imbeciles who've decided Forest get a 4pt deduction.
We weren't.
They wanted to dock us 12.
Settled on 10.
Ended up on 6 after appeal.

Question
@henrywinter
- the fact that
@swfc
have been relegated to the third tier of the game, primarily due to a 6 point deduction (reduced from 12), for a rule infringement - hardly fair on the fans and players of that club, no? Why a different attitude to the "big (sic) Six?"

Go back to the heady days of Kenwright lying at AGMs. Wheeling out Samuelson. Being visibly annoyed when it was his turn, as a director, to face re-election and seeing hands in the air opposing him. THAT was the start of the road we've traversed. Cancelling AGMs.
